HEAT: Lamp vs UTH. Which is better? And are human heating pads ok?

[redshepherd]

You all know majority of human heating pads have a controller. Built in to adjust temp... They dont just run full power or off like your all making it sound.... But they are not a good alternative becase they do not run constantly and the heat they provide while able to be dialed up or down is very inconsistent

Also that snakes commonly just need heat from 90~95, which feels like room temperature to human skin. Human heating pads, in order to feel even a little warm to humans, must be over 95~100 at least, so usually 95~100 is the minimum setting. It just doesn't work at all for snakes.
